Running Windows XP Home w/SP2.

The C: drive is 38GB and contains all Windows XP files, programs, documents,
etc. The D: drive is 13.49GB and is setup as a logical drive (according to
Computer Management, Disk Management). The D: drive has no data.

If I delete the D: drive is the 13.49GB automatically added to the C: drive
or do I need to take additional steps. Thanks in advance for the help.

You need a partition manager such as Acronis Disk Directory.

D drive will not be added to the c drive (sorry)

You can combine the partitions using acronis disk director suite or
parition magic but it doesnt always work perfectly so you'll want to
make a norton ghost (or acronis trueimage) image backup of the HD
before...

If you dont want to spend money...
Then you will have to lose all data on both paritions... Obviosuly this
is fine if you bac it all up:::::::
you can delete the second parition in disk management and then
re-format the whole hard drive into the size of 50GB
